View Full Version : New Feature: Armor of God

Some of you may have noticed that under your avatar next to your posts there is a new field called "Armor of God".

When you click on this, you will be able to see that you can choose to exchange part of your blessings for part of the Armor of God. As you know, you accumulate blessings by posting new threads, or by being blessed by other members (please see FAQ "Special Features" for more details). Now you can exchange your blessings for various different parts of the Armor of God, that will be displayed under your avatar next to your posts. If you wish to upgrade to a new item, you can return the item you have for half the amount of blessings you exchanged for it, and get a new item.

Basically, this new feature has no real purpose, except to give you something to exchange your blessings with. :) I thought it would be fun to do.

You may go to look at and exchange blessings for part of the Armor of God by clicking on the "Armor of God" link under your avatar, or by clicking on the "Profile" button, and then on the "Armor" link.

Let me know if there are any bugs.

Ephesians 6:10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11 Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13 Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. 14 Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, 15 and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. 16 In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17 Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. 18 And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints.</smallfont>

Go to where you got the item in the first place - there is a link on the top right hand corner to do return the item. You will only get half of what you exchanged it for.

Armour of God can only be effective if we repent and
walk in true obedience to Lord our God.Its a difficult
jouney but mot impossible.

I admit it, I'm goofy happy about the new feature. Meaningless playtoys are right up my alley!

Seriously, thanks. Is a neat feature.

I like it, I wouldn't mind having some blessings. ;) Anyway, I had an idea. Maybe you could make people be able to trade their stuff for blessings with eachother. What do you think? :)

I'm not stressing you into doing anything am I? If so, I didn't mean to.

I think it's really cool, but unfortunatly, I haven't got the blessings for buying anything. You think maybe you could make all of them cheaper. Like, make the most expencive, 10,000, down to maybe 2500. Nobody that I've seen has 10,000 blessings.

I'll have to agree with lelalela. I mean, not even I have seen anybody with 10,000 blessings.

Oh wow!!! :) Thank you so much!! I think I'll share these instead of buying!!! ;)

finally! I understand the blessings and armour thing properly!. Suggestion. Put something on homepage explaining blessings once registered, it's kind of neat

Erwin, I still need enough blessings to get them winged boots. I at first was not at peace with the idea of winged boots for certain reasons but if them things make me fly then I'm still the Green Mean Fighting Machine. If combat jungle boots were an option I'd have me a pair, right quick.
I am at peace with all my other armor, lol.
